Zig Ziglar made an appearance and invites out for Abraham Lincoln, Richard Branson and Bill Clinton

The Exeter Business Network event on 6th November at Exeter Golf & Country Club began with a seminar – the A-Z of Networking

During the seminar those attending were asked who they would most like to have a coffee with – Abraham Lincoln, Richard Branson, Bill Clinton, James Kahn, Simon Cowell, Ranulph Fiennes, Oliver Reed, The Queen, Ellen McArthur, Scott Jurek and Richie Macraw were among those nominated – what a coffee morning that would be. The seminar delivered by Sean Humby (that’s me!) covered everything form your story, the art of proxemics, open and closed groups, Brand You, following up, using social media – a whistle stop tour!

Followed by THE networking lunch – a room full of conversations and connections over a served 2 course lunch – slow cooked creedy caver duck followed by an autumn fruit salad with coffee and chocolates!

Believe me when I say that the room was full of conversations – perhaps a video next time!!!?

Thank you to Guy Arnold for a memorable and thought provoking 10 minutes on The 21st Century Sales Process –

– the changing environment we now have to market in – from a traditional method of finding, getting interest and then bombarding to a customer empowered sales process. Guy’s goal is to wake salespeople and organisations up to what it takes to be successful selling to today’s savvy, crazy-busy prospects in a market where your customer is empowered and your business is transparent.

The Devon Air Ambulance Trust is the charity which raises the funds to keep 2 emergency Air Ambulances flying. This is no small feat as each and every year we have to raise in the region of £4.5 million to keep both of the helicopters airborne. Click here to donate Help celebrate their 21st Birthday!
